Congratulations to Morgan McDonald (12/MO) who trialled for the Australian cross country team in Canberra in mid-January this year and came second in the Men’s Junior–under 20 year old–race. He has now qualified to represent Australia at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships in Bydgoszcz, Poland on 24 March 2013.

This is the second time Morgan has been profiled in the last six months for his achievements in athletics. In October last year he was the Under 18 Australian Cross Country title holder in the 6 km race. Morgan came a clear first place in the time of 20 minutes, 42 seconds–a full 12 seconds ahead of his opponent.

We wish Morgan the very best in his training before flying to Poland.
